Was looking for bass on LSC today off the MC around Harsens Island. Started a drift from can 20C throwing a chrome ratl-trap. All of a sudden "thump" felt like I was snagged, then line started peeling off. Fought this thing for about 20 min getting it to the boat. Of course I was by myself, so no one to help with a pic. Got it in close and was reaching for my cell to snap a pic and this thing jumped out of the water, gave a huge head shake and bit the line right off and stole my favorite lure. It almost jumped into the boat with me. That would have been intresting. Was at least 36" fish. Wow, what a blast.

Hooked one in an inland lake in Kzoo last summer bass fishing. 35" 10 pounder on bass gear was great. 3 man effort to get it in. Had my net at least but that sob bit through my net in the boat:yikes: Congrats on the surprise.:D
